Q: What is the slot access capacity?
A: Before slot division of the OptiX OSN 1500B:

In the OSN 1500B subrack, slots 11-13 can be divided into half-width slots. Slot 11 can be divided into two half-width slots numbered slot 1 and 11, slot 12 can be divided into two half-width slots numbered slot 2 and 12, and slot 13 can be divided into two half-width slots numbered slot 3 and 13.

Q: Is there any restrictions for board substitution?
A: Yes, there list some restrictions when board substitution below or you can contact Thunder-link.com technical sales team to confirm the board substitution relation.
| Board that supports board version replacement functions |
Board that cannot Be substituted |
Condition |
| N1SL16A |
N2SL16A
N3SL16A |
The TCM function is enabled for the N2SL16A/N3SL16A. |
| N3SL16 |
N2SL16 |
The TCM function is enabled or AU-3 services are configured for the N2SL16 |
| N3SL16A |
N2SL16A |
AU-3 services are configured for the N2SL16A. |
| N3SLO1 |
N2SLO1 |
AU-3 services are configured for the N2SLO1. |
| N2EFS0, N4EFS0 |
N1EFS0 |
N1EFS0 is configured with QoS functions. If an N4EFS0/N2EFS0 is configured as N1EFS0 and the simulation package loading method is used, the board software of N1EFS0 is loaded. As a result, a cold reset is performed on the board and board version replacement function becomes ineffective. Therefore, an N4EFS0/N2EFS0 must not be configured as an N1EFS0. |
| N4EFS0 |
N2EFS4 |
If an N4EFS0 is configured as an N2EFS0 and the simulation package loading method is used, the board software of the N2EFS0 is loaded. As a result, a cold reset is performed on the board and the board version replacement function becomes ineffective. Therefore, an N4EFS0 must not be configured as an N2EFS0. |
| N2EGS2 |
N1EGS2 |
The N1EGS2 is configured with QoS functions. |
Q: Do you have U2000 NMS if I buy OSN1500B from you?
A: Yes, we can share U2000 software package to our customers for free.
Q: Do you have U2000 NMS License if I buy OSN1500B from you?
A: Yes, we provide to our customer U2000 license for test purpose, not for commercial use.
Q: Does OSN1500B have AC power supply?
A: No, OSN1500B power interface unit PIU is DC -48V input only, if you need a AC/DC power converter, please contact with Thunder-link.com sales team.
Q: Do you offer OSN1500B Subrack separately?
A: Yes, please contact with our sales team for details.
